Don’t pass up on this festive favorite because of the calories; just mix yourself a lighter version.
You Will Need
- 4 fresh mint leaves
- 4 lime wedges
- 1 1/2 oz. low-calorie rum
- Some club soda
- A Collins glass
- A muddler or a spoon
- Crushed ice
- 1 tsp. sugar substitute
Step 1: Muddle the mint
Put three mint leaves and four lime wedges into a Collins glass and mash them with a muddler. Add one teaspoon of sugar substitute if you like your mojitos on the sweet side.
If you don’t have a muddler, just use the back of a spoon.
Step 2: Fill with ice
Fill the glass with crushed ice.
Step 3: Add the rum
Pour in an ounce and a half of low-calorie rum and stir.
Step 4: Top with soda
Top with club soda.
Step 5: Garnish with mint
Garnish with the remaining mint leaf and enjoy!
Until 1970, British sailors used to receive a daily ration of rum to help them deal with life at sea.
